Farmer Girl

I took this video as I was plowing my garden with my new old tiller. It started great and ran like a top. Last time I plowed it would die and Larry restarted it. He said it had a device to shut it off if it was low on oil and as I till sometimes it would be unlevel. He took that off a few days ago. I surely works great. I plan to plant squash, cucumbers and zucchini today but the wind is really blowing and I will have to give myself a talk to get it done.

You can see the cabbage, potatoes and onions. The bare row will have the squash, etc. that I plan to plant. Then in a week or so I will plant improved pinto beans and contender bush green beans. Not long after that will be the tomatoes and peppers. If I lived closer to Douglas Road I know where I could "lift" some plants and the old wive's tale says stolen plants grow the best!

Laura cut her Dad's hair and I sprinkled it around in the garden. Deer do not like human hair. His hair is almost beyond gray to white! I appreciate my husband today. He is fixing my wheel barrow and soon it will be better than new. He has already put a new tire on and now he is putting new handles and wedges in it. I will be ready to haul s..t from the horse pasture and chicken pen!
